Hey, I'm new on the forum too I joined WW in January so not exactly new there but I felt like you that soon in- not missing out and not hungry etc. My first weigh in terrified me but more so as I joined with my mum and she lost 4 in her first week. I lost 1 and was a bit disappointed as most people in my class lose loads in their first weeks- even if they aren't that overweight.

And a lady in my meeting just got to goal after joining just before Christmas and she's lost about 3 and a half stone so 4 and a half is do-able by the end of the year I would say. Good luck!

Hello! I'm new to WW and joined on Wednesday afternoon. After following Slimming World and now I am eating "normal" food and not feeling like I'm missing out on anything I too am really worried about my first Weigh In!
Ive just eaten a McDonalds to use up some of my weeklies! LOL

Hi, I only joined the forum last week but started ww online at the end of January. I want to lose around 4 stone but have not yet set myself an end goal. I'm waiting until I feel comfortable or until imindoors suggests it's time to stop. Whichever comes first lol. I marked goals on my calendar - next Tuesday should have seen me at a 2 stone goal. I'm at 2 1/2!
I try not to use my weeklies though I dip into them a little when we go out for a meal. I see them as an credit card or an overdraft. Peace of mind but put them in a drawer unless absolutely needed.

I got told to eat my weeklies, because if you dont use them and then you decide to use them one week and gain or your weight loss starts slowing down - then thats what you lower...or start cutting down on.

Oh right! I'm an online subscriber and have never been to a group meeting so don't get these titbits of info but, to be honest, I don't think I could eat them all! You get the advice pages but I only ever skimmed them, I got the impression that they were just a buffer. I wouldn't feel like I had cut down in the first place if I had eaten all my weeklies from day 1. It is comforting to know that they are there for meals out though.

Thanks goodness I haven't been going hungry though by not using them! I suppose I would have dipped into them if I had.
I can't believe how much I am eating on this diet but I have changed to eating the right things instead of the wrong ones!

Hey... I'm new to WW too... Been lurking on this site for a week already but only just joined!!
Started last week and been using all my points everyday Feels great!!
It was my mum who started it all off my going to a WW meeting and I'm just kinda tagging along on the ride

I'm 20 next week and really unhappy with the way my body is.. been overweight for a while now after bullying at school and so I figured now is the time to get back into shape.

I want to lose about 4 stone but I'm happy for anything at the moment...I'll get there eventually!!
